JSOnline: Harsdorf and Brown Won't Support Constitution Spending Limit Amendment

"I don't believe fiscal policy belongs in the constitution," said Sen. Sheila Harsdorf (R-River Falls). Legislators are elected to control the state's tax burden by limiting spending, she said.

"We don't need to change our constitution to do this," said Sen. Ron Brown (R-Eau Claire). "We need to change our laws."


The prospects for what supporters call the Taxpayer Protection Amendment dimmed with the opposition of Harsdorf and Brown. The GOP controls the Senate 19-14.
